Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a complex, separable Hilbert space and $\mathcal{B}(\mathcal{H})$ denote the algebra of all bounded linear operators acting on $\mathcal{H}$. Given a unitarily-invariant norm $\| \cdot \|_u$ on…
Given a complex, separable Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, we characterize those operators for which $\| P T (I-P) \| = \| (I-P) T P \|$ for all orthogonal projections $P$ on $\mathcal{H}$. When $\mathcal{H}$ is finite-dimensional, we also…
We shall say that a densely defined closed operator $T$ on a Hilbert space is balanced if $\cD(T)=\cD(T^*)$. Balanced operators are described in terms of their phase operators abnd their moduli. Examples of balanced operators are developed.…
A bounded linear operator $ A$ on a Hilbert space $ \mathcal H $ is said to be an $ EP $ (hypo-$ EP $) operator if ranges of $ A $ and $ A^* $ are equal (range of $ A $ is contained in range of $ A^* $) and $ A $ has a closed range. In this…
We study the typical behavior of bounded linear operators on infinite dimensional complex separable Hilbert spaces in the norm, strong-star, strong, weak polynomial and weak topologies. In particular, we investigate typical spectral…
Let $S$ be a pure bounded rationally multicyclic subnormal operator on a separable complex Hilbert space $\mathcal H$ and let $M_z$ be the minimal normal extension on a separable complex Hilbert space $\mathcal K$ containing $\mathcal H.$…
Consider a complex Hilbert space $\left(\mathcal{H}, \langle \cdot, \cdot \rangle\right)$ equipped with a positive bounded linear operator $A$ on $\mathcal{H}$. This induces a semi-norm $\|\cdot\|_A$ through the semi-inner product $\langle…
A linear operator $U$ acting boundedly on an infinite-dimensional separable complex Hilbert space $H$ is universal if every linear bounded operator acting on $H$ is similar to a scalar multiple of a restriction of $U$ to one of its…
We answer, by counterexample, several open questions concerning algebras of operators on a Hilbert space. The answers add further weight to the thesis that, for many purposes, such algebras ought to be studied in the framework of operator…
A quasi-Hermitian operator is an operator that is similar to its adjoint in some sense, via a metric operator, i.e., a strictly positive self-adjoint operator. Whereas those metric operators are in general assumed to be bounded, we analyze…
We study two classes of bounded operators on mixed norm Lebesgue spaces, namely composition operators and product operators. A complete description of bounded composition operators on mixed norm Lebesgue spaces are given. For a certain…
We provide a streamlined construction of the Friedrichs extension of a densely-defined self-adjoint and semibounded operator $A$ on a Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$, by means of a symmetric pair of operators. A \emph{symmetric pair} is…
In this paper we consider a problem of the similarity of complex symmetric operators to perturbations of restrictions of normal operators. For a subclass of cyclic complex symmetric operators in a finite-dimensional Hilbert space we prove…
We study extension operators between spaces $\sigma_n(2^X)$ of subsets of $X$ of cardinality at most $n$. As an application, we show that if $B_H$ is the unit ball of a nonseparable Hilbert space $H$, equipped with the weak topology, then,…
We explore the norm attainment set and the minimum norm attainment set of a bounded linear operator between Hilbert spaces and Banach spaces. Indeed, we obtain a complete characterization of both the sets, separately for operators between…
Applying the techniques resulting the existence of almost invariant half-spaces, similarity models $\wh T$ can be given for upper triangular operator-matrices $T= \left[\begin{matrix}A&C\\ 0&B\end{matrix}\right]$. The model $\wh T$ is also…
We study two extension problems, and their interconnections: (i) extension of positive definite (p.d.) continuous functions defined on subsets in locally compact groups $G$; and (ii) (in case of Lie groups $G$) representations of the…
We present some new upper and lower bounds for the numerical radius of bounded linear operators on a complex Hilbert space and show that these are stronger than the existing ones. In particular, we prove that if $A$ is a bounded linear…
Linear spaces with an Euclidean metric are ubiquitous in mathematics, arising both from quadratic forms and inner products. Operators on such spaces also occur naturally. In recent years, the study of multivariate operator theory has made…
Let $A$ be a positive bounded linear operator on a complex Hilbert space $\mathcal{H}$ and $\mathcal{B}_{A}(\mathcal{H})$ be the subspace of all operators which admit $A$-adjoints operators. In this paper, we establish some inequalities…
